  • Use library in Deconseq to remove human genome

    Hello,

    I am using Deconseq to remove human sequences from fastq files generated by Myseq Illumina. I created the database with the human sequences using:

    bwa64 index -p hs_ref_GRCh38_p2 -a bwtsw hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split_PS.fa.fasta > bwa.log 2 >&1
    This as created a series of files that I placed in a subfolder named refChr. The list of files is:
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.amb hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.pac hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.sa
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.ann hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.rbwt hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split.fa
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.bwt hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.rpac hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split.fa.log
    hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.fa hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.rsa hs_ref_GRCh38_p2_split_PS.fa.fasta

    I then ran the following command to use Deconseq:
    ~$ perl /usr/bin/deconseq.pl -f fu_1.fq -dbs ./refChr/hs_ref_GRCh38_p2 -i 90 -c 90 -out_dir DECONSEQ
    But I got the following error:
    ERROR: database "./refChr/hs_ref_GRCh38_p2" does not exist in config file.

    Try 'deconseq -h' for more information.
    Exit program.

    I tried with '/refChr/...' and 'refChr/...' and also with '...hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.fa' and '...hs_ref_GRCh38_p2.sa' but same error.
    Would you have some tips on how to use the library to remove the human contaminants?
    Thank you
    G

    Essential Discoveries and Tools in Epitranscriptomics
    by seqadmin


    The field of epigenetics has traditionally concentrated more on DNA and how changes like methylation and phosphorylation of histones impact gene expression and regulation. However, our increased understanding of RNA modifications and their importance in cellular processes has led to a rise in epitranscriptomics research. “Epitranscriptomics brings together the concepts of epigenetics and gene expression,” explained Adrien Leger, PhD, Principal Research Scientist on Modified Bases...

    Current Approaches to Protein Sequencing
    by seqadmin


    Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...
